Any of you having problems with your production numbers on MW matching that on BOINC/BAM reports? As of Aug 6 the MW leader board shows my place as 56. (I assume that is my U.S. rank???) BOINC/BAM shows me with a world rank of 431 and a U.S. rank of 170. Even more interesting, my BOINC/BAM rank has remained unchanged at those numbers since June 12. Anyone else have such an issue? Does MW send out the numbers and stats to BOINC/BAM, or, does BOINC/BAM extract the numbers from MW? One of the BAM settings shows that communication between BAM and MW is successful on a daily basis. I wonder if MW can tell what, if anything, is uploaded by BOINC/BAM.

No, worldwide, sorted by recent avarage credit, BOINCstats sorts by total credit if you don't change it by yourself. This is your current position by RAC @BOINCstats.

You are #429 if you sort the Milkyway list by total credit and that's the same on BOINCstats.



does BOINC/BAM extract the numbers from MW?
This, IIRC once a day while the positions in the lists here are updated instantly, so there might be some small differences depending on when you check.

The Projects make a file available of the people who agree to have their stats shared at a specific website and then the stats sites periodically grab that file, some Projects upload the stats file several times per day while others only do it once per day but the stats sites check it several times per day, maybe even once per hour, and then update their numbers accordingly.

Link and Mikey...Thanks for the info. I am amazed that there has been no change in my position since early June! I do understand what you are saying and I appreciate the time you took to answer. I guess I just got used to incremental changes, but that was before MW made all of those changes. JB

Is this you? https://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=userbycpid&cpid=997fc789ba405b7770d43f6a97c56678

How about this one? https://www.boincstats.com/stats/-1/user/detail/2155257/projectList

Thanks for asking, Mikey. Yes, to both of those referenced. I am not familiar with free-dc.org stats, but stats certainly appear to be mine....I do not understand why I have any team stats at all under free-dc. Have never had a team or been a member of one. Long long ago I did have a change in name (when I was running only SETI), but did a file merge so that should have an effect. On the other end (BOINC/BAM) there is no reply to my query to determine why, in certain BAM files, there is missing data, but that is probably an unrelated issue.

All the stats sites get the info from the people who agree to have it shared so Boinc stats gets it then free-dc gets it as well, as well as any other stats sites that might pop up every once in awhile.
